Just came across a website which I thought people might be interested in. It
is called Entrepreneurial Libraries: bright ideas for today's libraries. It
has been developed by Multnomah County Library in America and explores ideas
about how public libraries can make money! The site has been developed by
the library's Entrepreneurial Activities Coordinator (an interesting job
title) and provides various ideas about how libraries can develop income
generating services in addition to their core free services. It is aimed at
American librarians but I thought people might find it interesting anyway.
